Steins;Gate – 19

「無限連鎖のアポトーシス」 (Mugenrensa no apotōshisu)
"Infinite Chain of Apoptosis"

A couple of words come to mind when considering this episodes of Steins;Gate. Intense, certainly. Dark, definitely. But the one that really captures it for me is “joyless”. And while it was probably a necessary evil at this stage in the story, that didn’t make it any easier to watch.

Yuruyuri – 06

「あーと☆あーたー☆あーちすと」 (Aato☆Aataa☆Aachisuto)
"Art☆Arter☆Artist"

Wow, they won't even let Akari have her short opening message anymore. This is really verging on trolling levels thanks to Kyouko. It's one thing to joke about how Akari has no presence; it's downright cruel to take it away from her.
